Can I freeze batter mix?

[CheekyChops]

As above!

Auntie Bessie sells frozen yorkshire puddings so it should be possible, shouldn't it?

[scotgal]

Quick answer - yes.

You can freeze everything! if it's a good idea or not is another matter.

in this case yes (well I haven't died yet and my mother always used to)

Batter mix will freeze but it smells & tastes different when thawed.

Use 1egg, cup of plain flour, half pint milk. Add milk slowly as you mix flour and egg with fork to remove lumps. Use 2eggs for yorkies, (for them to rise).

So easy.....Y freeze it and risk losing taste?

[puddicat]

fickens you cant freeze whole eggs

[Kleiber]

Or lettuce!

[ChuckFickens]

throw them in liquid nitrogen.... they'll freeze!

[Jugglering]

Errr.... anything can be frozen (as Chuck has rightly pointed out) but whether it is still even remotely edible when defrosted is another matter....

Some veg can be frozen but these tend to be the ones that don't deteriorate when their structure is broken down (tomatoes, sweetcorn, peas etc). Wheat seems to have a fairly robust structure, so it's ok for freezing (bread, pasta, high flour products) but they don't last too long ...

My real answer ought to be, why on earth would you want to freeze a batter mix when it's so easy to make up from the dried ingredients... doh ! Just add water and stir.... lol

[CheekyChops]

I want to freeze it because I live on my own and when making it up (ok, I admit I use a packet mix) there is too much to make a toad in the hole just big enough for one!

I have no problem at all eating enough toad in the hole for a whole family but it isn't doing my waistline much good ;-)

[ChuckFickens]

make toad in the hole for 2 and either..

Invite me round for some

Or

Freeze the toad in the hole.

Simple:)

[boogieboogie]

freezing raw eggs isn't such a good idea

[CheekyChops]

I didn't know I could freeze Toad in the Hole, suppose I should have asked that instead really!

Make batter as I suggested, make the toads/pancakes and freeze the cooked products rather than the raw ingredients.
